Highway

Chippewa Falls is well served by an excellent state and national highway system.  Our companies are able to take advantage of high quality infrastructure that soon will provide four lane access from their front door to the places they want their products to go.

The key highways serving the Chippewa Falls area include:
•  I-94 - Located on the south side of the Chippewa Falls/Eau Claire urban area.
-> I-94 is a major transportation corridor in Wisconsin providing connections to the Twin Cities in Minnesota to the west and to Madison, Milwaukee, and Chicago to the south. Access to I-94 from Chippewa Falls is via USH 53 south and STH 29 west.

• USH 53 - A north-south freeway and expressway extending from I-94 at Eau Claire to the Duluth - Superior area, ending in International Falls, Minnesota. USH 53 south of I-94 is a two-to-four-lane highway extending south to the LaCrosse area.

• STH 29 - An east-west highway that is being upgraded to a four-lane freeway and expressway connecting Chippewa Falls with Interstate 94 to the west and Green Bay and Interstate 43 to the east. STH 29 is the primary east-west highway serving central and northern Wisconsin and is a major transportation asset for Chippewa Falls.
-> Both USH 53 and STH 29 are improved four-lane corridors that are considered part of Wisconsin's "Backbone Highway" system. With its location at the intersection of these two major highways, Chippewa Falls has excellent access to the Interstate Highway System.

• STH 124 - A north-south, major thoroughfare connecting Chippewa Falls with Eau Claire and extending to I-94 via North Crossing Road in Eau Claire.

• STH 178 - A north-south arterial highway linking the communities of Cornell and Jim Falls to Chippewa Falls. STH 178 connects to STH 64 north of the city.
